The group will be accompanied by Father Joseph Hardy, of London, and will visit in Consuelo, D.R., as part of this experience of seeing how the people there live and work. Consuelo was one of the missions where local native, Father Frank Moylan, worked for many years. A retreat weekend was held for all the group as part of their preparation for the "D.R." experience. Each of these young people has been doing fundraising to help uteet the expenses of this experience. Anyone, interested in more information, or in helping out, could contact any of these young people. A well-deserved standing ovation topped the very enjoyable Thursday evening performance of "Guys and Dolls" presented by the senior classes at Upper Thames School in Mitchell. It was inspiring to see the participation, St. Columban dedication, hard work and talent that went into this project. The young people involved deserve much credit, as do the adults. whose support and encouragement were evident. The C.W.L. Annual Fun Night held in Exeter this past week was an enjoyable evening of fun and fellowship. A potluck supper was followed by musical entertainment provided by Audibly Awesome Quartet. The highlight of the evening was storytelling and music played on the Paraguayan folk harp by Eduard and Christine Klassen. Eduard shared his story of growing up in a family of six 6p ys in extreme poverty. When Edulittd was seven old #Id, his Dad brought home a radio, and Eduard fell in ve with the music. He also credits the Christian missionaries with showing them a better way of life. He told of his life's journey from his native land to our country. Guy Lajoie will be at St. James Church on Thursday, Feb. 10 at 7:30 p.m. to make a presentation of "Jubilee Year." Everyone is invited to attend this informative evening.

Gladys Van Egmond and Elgin Nott entertained with many Scottish tunes. Marian Rose also provided a tribute to the Scottish with many piano favourites. A special visit from pupils of Chuck Mallot's class was enjoyed as they played a challenging game of crokinole with residents. Residents tried theirhand at a game Maplewood Manor of.Trivial Pursuit and found that there was still lots to Team. Games of crokinole, bingo and crafts. were also enjoyed with our very special - - volunteers. Bill Gibson and Jim McCallum each entertained residents with their piano music during the month. Church services enjoyed over the month were led by Rev. Vandermey, Pastor Corriveau and by Rev. Hiscox.

The special years will not return, When we were at together. But memories live deep within our hearts, And keep you with us forever, So treasure him Lord, In your garden of rest, For here on earth, He was truly the best. - Always loved, sadly missed, and forever in our hearts. - Joe and Mary, Maureen and Dave, Marilyn and Al, Kevin and Pam, Gary and Kathy.

As time goes by without you, Maurice, As the days tum into years, They hold a million memories, And a thousand silent tears, We often sit and reminisce, And have a laugh or two. Fondly telling stories, Of the things we used to do. They bring a laugh, often a tear, But always a wish that you were here. - Loved always, forever mssed and never forgotten. - Jean 46.06xtcc INCEWING-CARTWRIGHT: In lov- ing memory of John McEwing, dear husband, father, grandfather and great-grandfather who passed away February 17, 1998 and Howard Cartwright, dear husband, father, grandfather, son-in-law, brother, brother -In-law and uncle who passed away February 12, 1999. God looked around his garden and found some empty spaces, He then looked upon the earth and saw your tired faces. He saw the road was getting tough and the hills were hard to climb, So He closed your weary eyelids and whispered 'Please be Thine.' He put His arms around you and lift- ed you to rest, God's garden must be beautiful for He only takes the best. •Sadly missed and always remem- bered by Janle McEwing, Marione Cartwright, Beth McEwing Road and tamales. «11-01-1 Area Community Drop In.
